The moment the groan was heard, everyone's gazes immediately focused on Elder He, who was sitting cross-legged on the left. This was because the groan had come from Elder He.
Furthermore, those with similar cultivation levels could sense that the sudden change in the sky had a direct connection with the aura emitted from Elder He's body.
It felt as though Elder He had become one with the heavens and the earth. The earth was Elder He, and Elder He was a part of the earth and the void. It was extremely mysterious!
Everyone could see Elder He's existence, but through their Divine Consciousness, it was as if Elder He had disappeared into thin air. There was no trace of him at all!
Everyone had the same thought. Could it be that Elder He is going to break through the bottleneck that he has been stuck at for so many years?
Our True Gang Sect is going to have another Star-Monarch expert? Sect Leader Niu Zida was extremely excited. As he looked at Elder He, who was about to break through, he looked at Ling Dong in awe. He had always hoped that the sect's strength would increase.
The purple-robed Elder Lian, who had been standing to the right and coldly watching Ling Dong give out his greeting gift, had a look of disdain on his face. When he saw the strange phenomenon caused by Elder He, other than the shock in his eyes, there was even more bitterness at the corner of his mouth. It was a different kind of bitterness.
As a Star-Monarch, he had experienced similar scenes before. Naturally, he knew that this was a sign that someone was about to break through to the Star-Monarch Realm. He suddenly realized that Ling Dong, who was only at the peak of the Constellation Realm, whom he had looked down upon, actually possessed unfathomable power!
Being able to help others break through to the Star-Monarch Realm was already unfathomable.
It was a pity that at their level of cultivation, they believed that seeing was believing. At this moment, a trace of regret had already risen in his heart!
"If I had lowered my stance just now, I would have been able to obtain an incredible treasure as well, right?" The moment this thought appeared in his mind, the purple-robed Elder Lian immediately rejected it.
Given his extremely respected status in the True Gang Sect, he didn't want to kneel down in front of Ling Dong. To someone like him who had always been in a high position, this was absolutely impossible, especially when the other party was a Constellation Tier fellow whose cultivation was lower than his.
"If this guy can give away so many precious treasures and so many Reiki so easily, he must have a lot of them in his inventory …"
While the purple-robed Elder Lian was pondering, the green clouds that had just gathered in the void suddenly paused and showed signs of dispersing. The mysterious feeling of being one with the heavens and earth that was spreading out from Elder He's body suddenly dispersed. Elder He's figure suddenly became faintly discernible in the perception of everyone's Divine Sense and was no longer as mysterious as before.
It seemed like this breakthrough was about to come to an end!
The purple-robed Elder Lian, who had a bitter smile on his face a moment ago, suddenly revealed a trace of joy. It was a kind of joy that rejoiced in disaster.
Ling Dong raised his eyebrows and understood what had happened!
"Elder He, just focus on breaking through. I'll stand guard for you!" Suddenly, an explosive shout burst out from Ling Dong's mouth. At the same time, another ball of seven-colored starlight the size of a fingertip shot out from Ling Dong's hand and disappeared into Elder He's forehead.
In an instant, Elder He's faintly discernible figure stabilized and disappeared from everyone's Divine Sense once again. In the void, the wind and clouds gathered once again. The majestic and vexing energy waves spread out from the void and gathered in Elder He's body.
The aura emanating from Elder He's body seemed to be stacking crazily.
A person's comprehension ability was on display at this moment.
Some clever martial artists with high comprehension ability immediately sat down cross-legged on the ground when they sensed the mysterious energy waves spreading from the void. They circulated their cultivation methods and took this opportunity to cultivate on the spot, absorbing the extremely insignificant aura that escaped from the energy waves.
Although the aura they absorbed was extremely insignificant, it was the mysterious energy waves formed by the laws of heaven and earth when a peak Constellation Realm martial artist broke through to the Celestial Monarch Realm.
Not to mention absorbing a little bit of the aura, even if it was ten times less, it would still benefit the Constellation Realm and Quasi Star Realm warriors. Every time they absorbed a little bit of the aura, it would be equivalent to years or even decades of hard work.
This was not an alarmist talk.
Under normal circumstances, most peak Constellation Realm martial artists would have made preparations before breaking through. At the very least, they would break through under the protection of layers of concealment and suppression formations. For those with a little bit of status, there would even be powerhouses standing guard at the side.
Under such circumstances, most martial artists would break through to the Celestial Monarch Realm under extremely secretive circumstances. Very few outsiders knew about it, let alone someone like Elder He breaking through to the Celestial Monarch Realm under the open sky in front of everyone.
Such a situation was extremely dangerous.
Any random martial artist would be able to interrupt Elder He's breakthrough and even cause him to suffer a backlash. Just now, Elder He was worried about this. That was why his mental state became unstable and he suddenly fell from that realm.
Ling Dong had seen the signs of this. In addition, Elder He had seen Ling Dong's abilities before and trusted Ling Dong greatly. That was why he was able to break through again.
Of course, Elder He's breakthrough this time was also a matter of course, a result of his good preparation. After his cultivation reached the peak of the Constellation Realm's Level Nine, he had accumulated for 40 to 50 years just for this moment.
Furthermore, Ling Dong had bestowed a large amount of seven-colored starlight. Not only did it completely repair the cracks in Elder He's Spirit Source, but it also gave Elder He's Spirit Source a new lease of life.
After breaking through this restriction, Elder He instantly made a breakthrough. Furthermore, it was a breakthrough in both his Spirit and Astral Soul cultivation at the same time.
Ling Dong's spiritual consciousness shrouded this part of the world. The Triple Mystic Eye on his forehead was faintly activated. Anyone who dared to make any strange movements would be met with Ling Dong's fiercest attack.
Elder He was still able to hold on to the fishing port when the True Gang Sect was in such a state. This perseverance alone was enough to make Ling Dong think highly of him.
Ling Dong nodded his head in satisfaction as he watched the 200-odd disciples of the True Gang Sect retreat like a receding tide and sit down cross-legged to cultivate.
Although the strength of these disciples of the True Gang Sect was not great, their perception was still pretty good. Some of them were even top-notch. Gu Feng was one of the best among them. He was the first to sit down cross-legged and start cultivating.
As long as Ling Dong trained these martial artists slightly and provided them with more cultivation resources, their cultivation would definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
Elder He's breakthrough was still ongoing. However, Sect Master Niu and Elder Gong looked at Ling Dong as if they were looking at a true god.
Only Elder Lian had a complicated look in his eyes. There was even a hint of hatred in his eyes. This was because he suddenly realized that his position had been completely replaced by Ling Dong in the past 15 minutes.
In the past, he, a fourth-level Star Venerate, had been the guardian elder of the True Gang Sect. Even the Sect Master had to treat him with respect. He had always been the one to choose the sect's consecrators first. Even Elder Gong and Elder He treated him as if he was their senior, not to mention the other disciples who were also respectful and fearful of him.
But now, he discovered that Elder Gong and Headmaster Niu's gazes no longer contained the respect they used to have when they looked at him. This caused him to feel an indescribable sense of loss.
Elder He's breakthrough lasted for an entire night and half a day. It only ended after nearly 20 hours. During this time, Sect Master Niu activated the Protective Mountain Array at the right time to hide the strange phenomenon in the sky nearby. Otherwise, who knew if someone would come looking for trouble and cause trouble?
What surprised Ling Dong the most was Elder He's breakthrough. Today, Ling Dong had finally seen what it meant to be well-prepared. After breaking through to the Star Venerate Realm, Elder He's cultivation had been advancing rapidly. He had directly reached the peak of the first-level Star Venerate Realm. Then, he had broken through to the second-level Star Venerate Realm before stopping.
Although he hadn't been able to break through all these years, his painstaking accumulation had instantly turned into satisfactory results.
Moreover, during the process of Elder He's breakthrough, the number of disciples who had the ability to comprehend or sat down cross-legged to cultivate was constantly increasing.
For those who had the potential to break through their bottlenecks, Ling Dong would quietly fly in front of them and discreetly flick a ball of seven-colored starlight to help them break through.
This included Gu Feng and Ma Wu. With Ling Dong's help, Ma Wu had also broken through to the Constellation Realm.
This scene made Sect Master Niu grin from ear to ear.
He hadn't expected that Elder He's breakthrough would actually cause the True Dipper Sect's strength to soar. Not only did they have an additional Star Venerate Realm cultivator, but they also had three more Constellation Realm cultivators. There were even more Quasi Star Realm cultivators.
What he didn't know was that Ling Dong had secretly helped them.
Ling Dong had said that he would do everything he could to help the True Dipper Sect.
After Elder He's breakthrough, Ling Dong naturally wouldn't be stingy and gave Elder He a suitable mid-grade origin artifact. Ling Dong only had one high-grade origin artifact with the water attribute.
Ling Dong's action made the other cultivators in the True Dipper Sect green with envy. This was especially true for Sect Master Niu and the extremely indignant Elder Lian. They couldn't wait to snatch the origin artifact for themselves.
At this moment, Ling Dong's prestige in the True Dipper Sect rose to the peak.
No one doubted Ling Dong's ability anymore. Of course, other than Lian Xuefeng and Elder Lian, who were extremely indignant with Ling Dong.
Ling Dong, the Grand Supreme Elder, had returned and Elder He had broken through to the Star Venerate Realm. Almost everyone in the True Dipper Sect had benefited, and there were many who had broken through to the Star Venerate Realm. This could be considered as one of the four greatest blessings. Without a doubt, the True Dipper Sect naturally held a big banquet to celebrate.
This was like meeting an old friend in a foreign land, and Ling Dong was naturally happy. However, the mysterious feeling that appeared in Ling Dong's heart more than a month ago, as well as the promise he made with the short and fat Bai Han, had always been on Ling Dong's mind.
If Bai Han was right, then the Star Dou Mountain Range mentioned by the short and fat Bai Han was definitely the source of Ling Dong's mysterious connection. However, the most important thing right now was to determine his location or the location of the Star Dou Mountain Range.
Ling Dong had been traveling for more than ten days. God knew where he was now.
"Sect Leader Niu, there's something I'd like to ask you," Ling Dong mentioned during the banquet.
Sect Leader Niu was extremely respectful to Ling Dong's question. "Grand Supreme Elder, feel free to ask. I'll tell you everything I know!"
"Heh, I just want to ask about a place. Have you heard of the Star Dou Mountain Range?" Ling Dong asked.
"Star Dou Mountain Range?" Sect Leader Niu was stunned when he heard this. "That's right next door to our Smoky Fire Valley!"
This time, it was Ling Dong's turn to be shocked!
"Next door?"
